Curiously, the argument is philosophical, not Physics. If YOU can "do" physics, care to show me your work in this field? Are you being paid to be a scientist? Maybe working like dear old Albert?
Most people working, or teaching physics are nervously awaiting confirmation, or denial of the faster than light results from CERN.
If correct, then what will you do with the wreckage? We will see.
My argument has nothing to do with physics, and everything to do with the subjective state of our minds. This is where math is discovered. Same with a certain teapot, and various pasta monsters.
Oh, don't forget the concept of infinity.
Every God, fairy tale, and Urban legend come from here. Numbers are no different, though perhaps more useful. God is pretty useful to a priest. Numbers seem useful to bankers. Do you trust how they use them?
Do you trust a scientist who knows he is wrong, but is angling for one more grant to come through before he retires? How many professors do you think are shitting bricks? An old quote about science is that it advances one funeral at a time.
That is how the human world works. I think we have a couple hints, and a clue or two how the universe really works. Not much more. And possibly a lot less than we thought.
Einstein thought quantum entanglement to be a bigger problem to general relativity. His work with Podensky, and Rosen, laid the groundwork.
EPR has been testing out quite well. You seem to be quite the physics major, what do you think? Is it already faster than light?
When we remember we are all mad, the mysteries disappear and life stands explained.
